📚 Morphology Monday – Pasture 📚
This week’s word is pasture.
Let’s break it down into its morphemes:
🔹 base past meaning “feed or nourish”
🔹 suffix -ure meaning “action, process, or result”
When the morphemes are combined, pasture gives a sense of “the action or process of nourishing.”
In modern-day use, a pasture is land covered with grass where animals graze.
